Mullen's, in Eastbourne, is a traditional pub, built in the late 19th century. Formerly known as the White Hart, it is situated in a prominent location, on the corner of Seaside and Firle Road, opposite the town's Territorial Army Centre and just a short walk or drive from the town centre. It is also well served by public transport, being on a major bus route and within walking distance of Eastbourne Railway station.

In 2001, the lease of the pub was bought by Dave and Emma Mullen, and their business partner Pam Cable, and "Mullen's" was born.
They came in with a 'new broom sweeps clean' attitude, and gave the once tired pub not only a new name and fresh coat of paint, but also a fresh approach and identity. Seven years on, Mullen's is still run by the original management team, and continues to go from strength to strength.


Primarily, Mullen's is a family business, and this close-knit ethos extends to our staff and customers, be they regulars or first time visitors. We pride ourselves on our friendliness and hospitality, and this affable approach, combined with high quality beverages and good service, ensures that most people who pop into Mullen's for the first time will invariably return again and again.

We serve an extensive range of high quality spirits, wines and beers. Our locally brewed Harveys Best bitter is widely regarded as the best pint around, and it goes without saying that with a landlord from Dublin, our Guinness is exceptional!

Mullen's is a community pub in the truest sense of the word, and supports a thriving local events programme including darts, karaoke and pool, with two pool teams playing in the local league. We also have a new Sunday football team made up of enthusiastic staff and customers.

In addition, Mullen's is a great supporter of live music, and it is this which we are, quite rightly, most well-known for. Each and every Friday and Saturday night, we showcase a wide variety of music from the best live bands, both locally-based and from further afield. Musicians love playing here because of the unique and often electric atmosphere at Mullen's, and we have established an outstanding reputation amongst music fans as one of the finest live music venues in East Sussex. In addition to our regular Friday and Saturday night music spots, we have recently established a new 'folk music night' on Sundays, which is rapidly gaining in popularity and support. We are constantly on the lookout for new talent, and welcome demo discs from new bands who would like to play at Mullen's.

As well as providing a platform for the best in musical talent, Mullen's also caters to the enthusiatic amateur, and Thursday is Karaoke Night!! Now an established regular event, hosted with aplomb by our resident DJ Zip, karaoke nights at Mullen's are huge fun for everyone, be they Tony Bennett or tone deaf!! Each singer receives one free drink for their courage, and the atmosphere is one of great camerarderie, with much support for all, even if the tunes are a little less than melodic!

In addition to our musical accolades, Mullen's is widely renowned as an excellent venue for watching sporting events on our two giant screens. We show all major football league and cup games, and being an Irish pub, we also show Gaellic football and hurling matches. Is is worth mentioning that we are, in fact, the ONLY Irish pub in Eastbourne, and as such, our annual St. Patrick's Day parties are legendary!
Whatever day of the year, it is worth popping into Mullen's, as there is always something going on. The welcome will always be a warm one, and the craic will always be mighty!

We look forward to seeing you soon.
